Preparation

In a small bowl whisk together vinegar, oil, and salt and pepper to taste. In a resealable plastic bag combine chicken with oil mixture and marinate, chilled at least 8 hours or overnight.

Cut mangoes by slicing just to sides of each pit and with a 3/4-inch melon-ball cutter scoop flesh from mango halves. (There should be about 48 mango pieces.) Mango may be scooped 8 hours ahead and chilled, covered.

Just before serving, assemble hors d'oeuvres by threading 1 chicken piece, 1 mint leaf, and 1 mango piece on each pick and arrange on a platter. Sprinkle hors d'oeuvres with freshly ground black pepper if desired and garnish with mint sprigs.

This is an easy beautiful recipe that looks impressive, but I admit the taste was a little bland. The second time I made it, I marinated the chicken in Trader Joe's Island Soyaki sauce...which is like a tropical pineapple terryaki sauce and the flavor went great with the mango and mint and totally made the dish. Now this is a dish I feel I will make again and know it will be tasty. The chicken definitely needs a little more flavor to complete it.

This is a fast, easy and delicious appetizer that is always a great addition to any of my parties. It may not be the one people ooh and ah over, but it's pretty and there's never any left. A staple!

I needed a quick dish to take to a
party. I used marinated and grilled
chicken breasts. While the tray
looked very pretty, the taste was
rather bland. Friends are used to me
bringing the best dish on the table,
but this was a real disappointment.
Half of it was left, and probably
went in the trash.

This is now an old favorite of my family and friends. One of the easiest recipes to make and so delicious. I have served it so often at dinner parties and its always a hit. I have just been asked for the recipe, again, by a couple that want to serve it at their 25th anniversary party.
